Diss. Snap. Burn. The New York Times did all three of these (and a boatload of other alternatives on Urban Dictionary), to the poor residents of Park Slope today. In a piece on Park Slope's 1 of a Find vintage store, writer Alexandra Jacobs says about the hood, "This is, after all, quite possibly the least chic neighborhood in New York City: a place where the closest thing to a club scene is cargo pants-clad, nose-pierced damsels gamboling to Van Morrison’s ‘Moondance’ while in line for their chamomile brews at the Tea Lounge; where exhausted parents march to their desultory date nights in the morning’s clammy yoga togs; where the central shoe destination is an Aerosoles. (And it’s often mobbed!) How could such people be expected to appreciate the joys of a deadstock Halston gown with labels intact?." Commenters, react! (The Cut)
